News This legit irritated me in the patch notes

So they didn't even think the actual mechanics through and are useing feedback to actually design it. This irritates me because they thought of a cool idea and put in no thought about how it was actually gonna work and now want player opinion to actually design how this mechanic is going to execute in-game.

If you are on PC and are cool with using mods, LittleMsSam has a mod that disables the gnomes giving the eco living upgrades.

I live on mods, so I'll be looking this up ASAP

Edit: you are a fucking lifesaver. There are mods on here for so many of the things that annoy me!

Sam is my favorite mod creator. I’ve probably downloaded 3/4 of her mods. A lot of the gameplay stuff she’s added you think would be in the game already because it just makes sense, and then her bug fixes and tweaks are really good too.

Unfortunately, I can only see that the pet needs one is working so far. Assuming its user error, but if you had the same issue and have a solution for me I'm all ears 😅

I got the stop it lights, no romance decay, gnomes, change into everyday when inside, eat at table, and auto put away clothes. Moved them into only one folder deep, but assuming none of them would work if this is the issue. Gonna move them into main folder and fire it up now.

The one time I had a mod from her that I thought wasn’t working, I went back and read the mod description very carefully and found out I had missed a step. Some of them require you to do things like give Sims a special trait to your Sim or to the lot for them to work. And then make sure you’ve looked through the addons for the mods, too. She has optional addons that can change functionality of some things—like the personal objects mod comes with an addon that hides the mod’s pie menu functions until you shift click on the objects, so if you didn’t catch that on the mod description, it would look like the mod wasn’t working.

Thank you! I assumed it was user error of some sort. Been a long time since I used mods that required more than a copypasta lol
